章 703: Chapter 703: It's Not That I Don't Want to, It's That I Can't

Jiang Ning looked up, and it was Princess Zhenming - the recently conferred Concubine Ya.

Here in the Empress's presence, although everyone was chatting and laughing, it was all done with the concubines sitting on either side of them. There was no loud noise or people wandering around.

Under everyone's gaze, Concubine Ya walked straight over to Jiang Ning from the opposite side, her melancholy eyes carrying a hint of a smile.

Jiang Ning took out all the crab yellow melon seeds from her purse, grabbed a handful, and handed them to her with a smile. "Crab yellow melon seeds, easy to eat. Here, you try."

Concubine Ya took them and began eating them while standing, looking very composed.

If such an unruly behavior came from anyone else, it would undoubtedly provoke the Empress's displeasure and the disdain of the other concubines.
